KIDS THESE DAYS …
In commenting on the rash of political correctness on college campuses, we recently noted how the spoiled, entitled punks running amok with government-guaranteed loans at publicly subsidized institutions were missing the mark when it comes to real “justice.”
“Martin Luther King, Jr. and others risked their lives for the right to vote, etc. To not get lynched,” we wrote. “They did not launch a movement so that privileged brats could go from cradle to grave without anyone saying mean things about them or violating their ‘safe space.'”
Damn right …
About the “lynching” thing, though. PC insanity took a quantum leap forward this week when students at Lebanon Valley College – a private, liberal arts school in Pennsylvania – demanded administrators rename a facility christened after former school president Clyde A. Lynch.
Why? Because the guy’s last name is the same as “lynch,” the term used for the extrajudicial execution of blacks during Jim Crow.
(Hold up … does this PC insanity also extend to the head of the U.S. Department of Justice?)
Anyway …
“This sort of epic stupidity is of course the logical outcome of college administrators consistently pandering to the inane demands of college cry bullies nationwide,” wrote Michael Krieger of the website Liberty Blitzkrieg. “No adults are holding these out of control child-fascists accountable for their despicable behavior. As such, these tyrants-in-training are getting more out of control every day, and getting away with it. Thank you college administrators.”
We concur. PC insanity has officially gone full retard …

This has to be a hoax. It is too stupid to be believable.

I was told recently not to say “How stupid can you get” any more. The liberals are taking it as a challenge. LOL
Talking of full retard, how about that Retard Reporter dance Trump invented.
Should AG Loretta Lynch changed her name too?
No, she will wind up being “hung out to dry” to cover a F up by the White House.
What about lynch pins? Do I have to take them off of all the wheels?
I’m still getting use to calling them Brazil nuts.
Sometimes I wonder how the current young generation is going to make. All of them seem to be a bunch of self-righteous, self-centered, lamed-brained liberal pussies.
Can’t wait till all these psych majors graduate and have to call a plumber to fix there toilet because they don’t know that shit runs downhill.
I really don’t expect them to be out of diapers till they reach middle age.
We are experiencing a lost generation.
From Pampers straight to Depends.
This bashing of the younger generation is getting old. My child started college right before the Bush Depression. Even with a scholarship she stilled worked a job to pay for living expenses. Then after she graduated she had to work low paying jobs due to the lousy economy. She now has a great job in another state and is thriving.
Almost bringing down the banking system, wasting trillions on a lied about war which has furthered the increase in terrorism is not the fault of the younger generation. It is the older generation that created this mess.
Maybe they should change the name of the building to the boomers building after you.
You too are either a boomer or one of the Lucky Fews. And I’ll bet the Greatest generation complained about the younger ones too.
They Young People have exalted notions, because they have not been humbled by life or learned its necessary limitations; moreover, their hopeful disposition makes them think
themselves equal to great things — and that means having exalted notions. They would always rather do noble deeds than useful ones: Their lives are regulated more by moral feeling than by reasoning — all their mistakes are in the direction of doing things excessively and vehemently. They overdo everything —
they love too much, hate too much, and the same with everything else. ~Aristotle
Fits us all, doesn’t it.
Aristotle must have raised a house full of self-righteous, self-centered, lamed-brained liberal pussies.
And they all probably went to Ivy League schools.
I bet Aristotle was flat broke after paying for their education.
Are you saying there were no government grants or federally backed student loans? Wonder how everyone got educated before those started to happen?
There was absolutely no government aid. Aristotle had to push a hot dog cart through Athens, selling his hot weenies on a bun to get enough money to send his kids through school. One of his boys did get a basketball scholarship.
:-)
One made the playoffs. A footlong, but he tripped and lost.
+100! I was a liberal until my brain fully developed. Seriously, who wanted to have sex with a Young Republican? The YRs didn’t have any Sarah Palins where i grew up.
No shit, hell pants suit was a YR, I wouldn’t do it either, then or now.
You bet your ass they did.
You must have been on the receiving end also.
Me and just about everyone I know of my generation.
“This bashing of the younger generation is getting old.”
And I agree with that one hundred percent.
Wish I had as much respect for this young generation as I have had for past generations. If I did, you would not hear it from me.
It is nice that your kid went to school, landed a good job and is on the road to success.
Wish I could say that about all of them.
I have a grandson graduating midterm as an electrical engineer. He interned for a company that said as soon as he graduated he would have a job. Many times it is the major pursued that gets them the job.
That’s a great point, pursuing a major that has a demand for its graduates is a sure winner. Majors like women’s studies or fourteenth century Danish literature may not get you a lot of offers.
Congrats, I hope you’ve taught him what end of a screwdriver to hold. It is always nice to see one that can do what they ask of others. He can always go through the drive up at Starbucks and catch up on old times with his old dorm roomie with the European Art History degree.
My son-in-law taught him, he’s an electrician. I told him to be nice to my grandson because he might be working for him in the future.
Hey, history and english majors get jobs. There’s always openings in the local media.
Isn’t GT a English major? Case closed.
Weren’t you advised to not reproduce over on the climate article? (just messing with you). Electrical engineers are always in high demand, but please tell me he/she didn’t pass my differential equations class.
Merry X-mas.
Yep, someone named Sarah Sez, who’s mother missed an appointment at PP. ;-)
Tell me about “he/she”, did the professional mathematical statistician miss the statistic “grandson” or just being PC?
Merry X-mas to you also.
I just missed it. I’m definitely not PC.
You don’t say!?!? She had to WORK to pay living expenses ? The poor dear, how will she go on
Yes, she had to pay her rent, utilities, food, car insurance etc. while going to school fulltime. The point being not all of the kids coming up are slackers. Once she left for college, she’s been on her own since, not living with or sponging off her parents.
You are to be commended for raising a productive and energetic member of society. I’m sure you are proud of her and have every right to be. But alas this thread is not about the likes of your daughter and her accomplishments, don’t take the comments as personal.
Psych Major here….now work in IT and make 6 figures…and I’m pretty handy around the house.
Good for you, you saw the light…I’m retired.
Most of them will still be living at home with their parents until they are in their 30’s. However the ones I know are right wingers?
While your anecdotal account may be true, I believe most of these youngsters would be of the liberal persuasion.
The four I know are definitely not liberals. Remember, this is South Carolina.
What the hell do you know about a college education? So you are saying boy, that all of the current generation seems to be lamed-brained liberal pussies. Hmmm, did you noticed what occured at the world famous insitution of higher learning, The Citadel, here little lame-brained little republican boys play solider. But what the hell do expect from a clown like that attended Chesterfield A&M. Nice try boy, but typical of your crap.
Sit, Fred, Sit.
Who raised them that way?
They probably learned that continuously throughout their lives, but perfected the art at some institute of higher learning.
…says each generation to the next…since forever.
My grandfather as he fed his hogs
said the world was going to the dogs.
His grandfather in his house of logs
said the world was going to the dogs,
His grandfather in his leather togs
said the world was going to the dogs.
His grandfather in the Scottish bogs
said the world was going to the dogs.
The only thing I have to state is that
the dogs have had a mighty long wait.
Maybe that is why my dog is so neurotic, he is tired of me calling the shots.
(chuckle)
Let’s wait to see how they cope in the real world, especially if any of them land executive-type positions and have to deal with other subordinates/employees who are also “whiners” …..
Why are you attacking an entire generation of people? You don’t think they are smart enough to be able to sort out which outrages are warranted and which ones are not?
David Lynch movies are big on college movie nights (including the classic weird-fest “Blue Velvet”, on which I worked on extras casting when it was filmed in Wilmington, NC).
Since Lynch is an avowed libertarian, will all his flicks be banned, not to mention the immortal “Twin Peaks?”
Sometimes when I read about this stuff … sometimes …
Sometimes my arms bend back.
Fire walk with me.
Unless you have to go into your Safe Space.
Oh, look! Log Lady has wood.
Safe Space has damned good coffee!
Ha! Too funny! They are quite an entertaining bunch of gullible imbeciles…
I saw a student’s comment on a news station’s website. She claims it is about 30 minority students making this stupid demand. And the rest of the students have nothing to do with it.
While they are at it they need to retro change Clyde’s and all of his descendants’ last name to Justus.
The college has appointed a committee of faculty members to negotiate with the students. The students objections were silenced when the college President introduced Ben Dover, Candy Bottoms and Dick Stroker as the new committee members.
“…entitled punks running amok with
government-guaranteed loans at publicly subsidized institutions were
missing the mark when it comes to real “justice.” ”
You mean like the entitled punks of Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University, 95% of whose students receive financial aid? That’s 81,000+ students who receive $800 Million per year in FEDERAL financial aid. In 2014, Liberty collected $724 million in revenue from those students, mostly distance learners.
$800 million is an assload in taxpayer subsidy for a public OR private institution.
Or, does it not count when it’s crony capitalism to a private school?

Take a mydal and calm down you hysterical liberal.
It’s great when a religious institution can screw over the government, ain’t it?
You seemed to have conveniently labelled “student loans” as student aid.
It is aid, in a sense, but the students owe the money back to the government.
The government is not simply giving them the money.
Also, if you check the list, there are many liberal schools on that list receiving “aid.”
Read the fine print on the graphs. It’s grants, loans, work study and other aid. Not just the student loans listed in the title.
But, I guess since student loans are one of those middle class, income based entitlements – like welfare and food stamps – we don’t consider them a government benefit.
There are far more for-profit racket colleges than ‘liberal schools’. Since non-profit is a racket, too, I guess that’s where Liberty falls.
There are employees at USC who are feeling unwelcome and left out because university offices and departments are putting up things like garland and wreaths. These special snowflakes do not think a state institution should be celebrating religious holidays that may exclude some employees.
Fuck them, I can guarantee everyone of them exchanges gifts on December 25th.
Would these same students protest Army POW Jessica Lynch speaking on campus?
Simple solution to those bitching… if you don’t like it here, go somewhere else.
Well done Folks. Lebanon college is the biggest problem the US faces right now. It must be addressed post haste.
These protesters have a niggardly amount of common sense.
The Israeli do not care about PC or any laws….http://news.yahoo.com/israel-exported-gold-north-korea-154440382.html
This is acceptable because of the so-called holocaust.
Once again we are betrayed by our closest ally.
the more diverse we get in this country the more problems we are going to have .. races should not mix they should stick to their own that is why most immigrants do not assimilate because they have common sense and not the American liberal victim attitude.
I was going to say almost the same thing. Liberalism would be better of without her. She’s the worst parts of Rachel Maddow rolled into one then magnified three or four-fold. I don’t think I say such ignorant stuff even when I’m drunk and just being stupid.
MHP’s comments a month or so ago that no one should say Paul Ryan is a hard-worker — because only slaves deserve to be called “hard workers” was just one of the most idiotic things I’ve ever heard from a non-rightwing nutjob — or some other idiot at the bar also drinking too much and being stupid.
But MHP has a TV show — and a professorship!
